The Profile of a Moron

The Seattle Times reports:
Sen. Ken Jacobsen doesn't own a dog, but wants everyone else to be able to take theirs into a bar.

He also wants companies to pay for roomier airline seats when they fly employees long distances, and the state to designate Oct. 9 as Leif Erikson Day and name the Garry oak the state oak tree. Then there's his idea of a state poet laureate. Washington should have one and give the bard a firkin of beer.

For the most part, he's serious. All 99 bills he's introduced since the session opened in January -- more than any other lawmaker in the state Legislature -- serve a purpose, the Seattle Democrat said, even if most of them die.
No more legislation.Please.
